- In this district certain days are looked upon as being lucky and unlucky.
It is believed that it is unlucky to change from one house to another on Saturday, and if a person does it, it is said that it will not be long until he will change again. It is said that if a person takes up a position on Friday, that person will never have any luck while he remains in it. It is said that if a person does something on New Year's Day, that he is not in the habit of doing, that he will always do it for the coming year.
The "Cross Day" of the year in our district occurs on the eve of every holiday.
The "Days of the Old Cow" are the first three days of April. They are sometimes called the borrowed days.- Collector
